How many Siper batteries do we have at present, and how many will we have by the end of 2026 – is 6–7 a realistic figure?

What is the current status of Siper Block 2 – when will it be officially handed over to the armed forces?

This needs to happen faster... we need at least 12–14 active Siper batteries by 2027/28 to build up an AD/A2 Field and ensure the success of Mavi Vatan.

The sources said Ukraine had imported a small number of Turkish-made Korkut air defence systems


The system is designed to counter first-person-view and tethered drones using 25-millimetre smart ammunition.

"Korkut has been pretty much successful in countering the Russian attacks,” one Ukrainian official told MEE


“There were of course some problems but nothing that couldn’t be overcome through some small adjustments.”

Korkut is reportedly operational in nine countries.
